How to acknowledge via link with user and secret with release v2.10p15?!

In the past we were able to acknowledge critical states with the following links, which wie included with mails. Is this method still valid? Is there an alternative way? (Rest API is not an option)

https:///check_mk/view.py?_do_confirm=yes&_transid=-1&_username=&_secret=&_do_actions=yes&site=&host=&view_name=service&service=&_acknowledge=Acknowledge&_ack_comment=

We upgraded our checkmk instance to “Checkmk Enterprise Edition 2.1.0p15”.

We found this post, but we assume that this is not relevant: (from 2014 an we are using the mentioned methods)
Changed transid implemtation to work as CSRF protection (Fixes CVE-2014-2330) (checkmk.com)

what do you mean if this method is valid? Have you tried it? if not, why? and if you have what was the error message??

Hello Anders,
thank you very much for your reply!

In the past, if we used the shared link, then the critical status of the specified service was acknowledged.

Since the update/upgrade we are redirected to a similar page and have to click the acknowlege button so that it works. :confused:

I share two pictures to show that the link has definitely the correct credentials and service information.
Furthermore the information is within the page if we click on the button, but it is not inserted directly, which was the case in the past.

picture 1

we use the initila mentioned link, which we create via script and send via mail to our service teams

then the individual person gets to the picture 1
after pressing button “acknowledge problem” follows picture 2, which shows that all data is there but not inserted immediately

is there any new “method” or variable which we might have to use in our link? :slight_smile:
